[QUOTE="Bluemarine Josephine, post: 1145425, member: 213188"] I understand how you feel. What I do, is I always have food with me in my work bad. It is food that I have measured and I know the exact carbs content. I use the app Carbs & Cals. I even weight the banana or the apple that I carry with me so that I may have the exact carb content and not have to guesstimate. If they ask you to join for lunch/dinner you can have a no carbs meal and use the carbs you have with you (ie a 30 carbs banana or 3 biscuits) this way you will not deviate (until you understand what is happening with your insulins and your ratios). Indeed college is super hard to time meals. So is work, meetings scheduled at 13:00 pm, client appointments, travelling for business, picking up kids from schools/friends/activities. No one has the same schedule day in/day out unless he/she is a pensioner. If you want to achieve a good diabetes management you need to place your condition as your number 1 priority. Everything else and everyone else can wait for 10-15 minutes until you finish a quick meal. [/QUOTE]
